Chapter 1375 Two-pronged approach

Ten years ago, the reputation of Puluo was very low.

Except for some maritime merchants who have some impression of the new city built by the East China Sea fishery, everyone else has never heard of it.

However, by the 20th year of Zhenguan, the popularity of Puluo was already higher than that of most of the prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty.

When you walk on Zhuque Street, you will ask a few people. They may not know about Tingzhou, Yuzhou and other prefectures in Jiangnan Road, but most of them know about Puluozhong.

As for those who like to read newspapers, they even know how powerful they are.

Whether it is the Datang Daily or other newspapers, there are always some related reports in Puluo every now and then.

It is even sold in some honeycomb coal shops in Chang'an City, and the first edition of the Nanyang Daily in Puluozhong.

This city, which is very far away from the Tang Dynasty, has a very high exposure in the Tang Dynasty with its unique vitality.

The population of this city that has lived for a long time has exceeded 100,000.

If the population on some islands around Puluo is calculated, the population is approaching 200,000.

Although for Chang'an City, such a small population is really not enough.

But it is not easy to have such a big city overseas.

The most important thing is that the Tang people who went to Puluo have been increasing in recent years.

For many people, voyage to Southeast Asia is no longer a terrifying thing.

Especially for Jiangnan Road and Lingnan Road, due to the ships that go to Puluo regularly, it is actually not that difficult for the people to leave their hometowns to make a living.

"The assessment of the Ministry of Personnel in the first half of the year has begun. Taking this opportunity, I think I can propose to Your Majesty that some outstanding officials will be arranged to serve in Puluozhong.

As a big city overseas, the Ministry of Personnel has never arranged for officials to be appointed in the past.

His Highness the King of Chu never took the initiative to ask the Ministry of Personnel for support. If this continues for a long time, Puluo Zhong will become a place beyond the law."

As the Minister of Personnel, Gao Shilian still has many ways to interfere in Puluo.

Although it is lonely and hangs overseas in Puluo, it will definitely have some uniqueness.

But no matter what, it is natural for the Ministry of Personnel to intervene in the appointment of officials in Puluo.

"Uncle, Puluozhong is a city built by the Chu Palace, and now it is completely controlled by the Chu King Party.

If the officials were simply arranged to go there, most people would probably not be willing to go there to appoint them and would not be willing to go against the Chu Palace.

Moreover, even if we arrange our people over, the effect may be very limited.

After all, it is impossible for us to arrange a large number of people to take office in Puluo Central in one go."

Although Changsun Wuji wanted to use Puluozhong as the entry point to intervene in the management of the ruling land overseas of the Chu King's Mansion.

But obviously he also knew that this matter was not so easy to achieve, so he came here today to discuss it with Gao Shilian.

"Wuji, I don't think you have to think so much about this. It is naturally not a matter of one or two to deal with the Chu Palace, nor even a matter of one or two years.

As long as we take back the great power of appointing officials in Pulu to the Ministry of Personnel, it is acceptable to appoint all the current officials in Pulu as officials at the beginning.

In the future, we can slowly change this situation and make everyone agree with this situation."

Gao Shilian's perspective on the problem is obviously very high.

The current ownership of those overseas territories is unclear.

He wanted to determine this problem first.

As long as these places are included in the prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty, no matter which officials are in office, it is acceptable.

Places like Dengzhou and Liangzhou, although they are inherent prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty, are now controlled by the people of the Chu Prince's Mansion.

Gao Shilian didn't expect to change this situation in an instant.

Unless Li Kuan does something traitorous.

"Well, this method is also feasible, and it is difficult for people from the Chu Palace to jump out and oppose it.

If they dare to disagree at this time, then we can impeach Li Kuan with selfish intentions, want to establish a country overseas and rebellion."

When it comes to his level of hat-butting, Changsun Wuji doesn’t think he will be worse than others.

Anyway, this is an open conspiracy. After I throw it out, I will see how the people from the Chu Prince's Mansion can take it.

"We can throw this matter out at the court meeting recently and catch Li Kuan off guard.

Moreover, we would be better able to find several other things at the same time and throw them out together. Even if one of them fails to achieve, it will be considered a victory."

Gao Shilian thought about the current situation in the court. Although Fang Xuanling had a close relationship with the Chu Prince's Mansion, it could not be said to be the Chu Prince's Party.

To be precise, Fang Xuanling is an imperial party.

Who is the emperor he supports?

Some other court officials were either the imperial party or the Changsun party, and very few belonged to other factions.

In addition to Cheng Yaojin and other military generals who had a close relationship with the Chu Prince's Mansion, Li Kuan's power in the court was not very large.

Most of the time, the influence of the Chu Prince's Mansion is among the people.

Therefore, Gao Shilian felt that there should be very few people who object to the relevant proposals for overseas territories at the court meeting.

Even Cheng Yaojin couldn't stand up and say anything.

After all, if you are not careful, this involves sensitive issues.

"This is actually very simple. Whether it is Puluozhong, Yongping Port, Qiwang Port and Hakodate Port, the most important reason why they can stand overseas is the existence of the maritime naval forces, which ensures their safety.

Although the imperial court has also set up the Tang Dynasty Navy, in fact, all the navy is still controlled by the Maritime Governor's Office.

We can propose to vigorously develop the navy, so that the Maritime Governor's Office can hand over most of the navy, and only retain the most basic ships required for taxation."

Changsun Wuji's move is ruthless.

The most important thing is that his proposal is really for the court.

Whether it is Li Shimin or Li Zhi, they must be very eager to see this situation.

In all dynasties, there was no single soldier mentioned in the yamen, and his combat power was so strong.

"Haha, Wuji, your proposal is really great. As a result, I'm curious about how His Highness the King of Chu would respond."

Gao Shilian's old face was full of smiles.

Sure enough, it is the best to use open conspiracy and the most enjoyable to use.

At that time, the people in the Chu Palace were obviously unhappy, but they had to agree with the scene, which made people happy to think about it.

"Well, I'll invite a few colleagues to our mansion to have a gathering and have a good time with everyone.
